CVE-2026-40601 Details
Description
Chartbrew is an open-source web application that can connect directly to databases and APIs and use the data to create charts. In version 4.9.0, Chartbrew exposes POST /api/chart/:chart_id/query without authentication. The endpoint only checks team.allowReportRefresh and does not verify that the target chart belongs to a public report, that the project is public, or that sharing policy allows the operation. An unauthenticated attacker who knows a chart identifier can trigger a data refresh and retrieve the current data of private charts. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.0.
A vulnerability in Chartbrew version 4.9.0 allows unauthenticated access to private chart data through the POST /api/chart/:chart_id/query endpoint. The endpoint only verifies team-level permissions for report refreshing, without checking if the chart is part of a public report or if the project allows such operations. As a result, an attacker who knows a chart ID can force a data refresh and access sensitive information from private charts. This issue has been addressed in version 5.0.0.
Users can update to Chartbrew version 5.0.0, where this vulnerability has been patched.
